(57) A bottom-end-stop assembly for a slide fastener comprises a pair of intercoupling
male and female members (1), (2) of thermoplastic synthetic resin adapted to be molded
on adjacent bottom ends of opposed fastener stringers (19), (20). The male member
(1) has an inner longitudinal projection (5) and a pivot pin (6). The female member
(2) has an inner longitudinal groove (8) receptive of the projection (5), and an inwardly
opening support hole (10) receptive of the pivot pin (6) for pivotal movement of the
male member (1). The male member (1) has at least one aperture (4) in the projection
(5) so that the stringer tape (19) is clamped between a pair of mold members (22),
(23) so as not to become wavy during the molding. The male member (1) also has on
opposite surfaces a pair of reinforcing ridges (7), (7) remote from the inner longitudinal
side of the male member (1).
